garden tub

"The master bath has his-and-her sinks, very generous closet space, garden tub and separate shower."

What is 'garden tub'? Why garden?

Thanks,

Hi, MTL! I googled the term (I had never heard of it before), seems it's a large tub, with a window out onto the garden. Check Google/images/garden tub.

Is it master bath or master bathroom, M2L?

Hi MrP,

This is a quote from someone else.

They should be the same. 'Master bath' is short for 'master bathroom'.

Hello M2L

This isn't a term I've come across before. But to judge by the pictures, it seems to be a bathtub; though somewhat broader and perhaps shorter than an 'ordinary' bath.

Hi MrP,

Do you have any ideas why it's so named 'garden'? Please share with us if you do.

Thanks,

Well, I suppose it's roughly the size and shape of the kind of large wooden tub you might find in a garden.

But someone else may have a better idea!
